fwiw, the chart of blocks looks like this.. essentially Aaron barely blocked anyone and then one day made a different decision which resulted in substantial blocks; in my mind that's someone reaching a breaking point and doing something about it.

And yes, of course I wore an opinionated tee for the Girli concert:

I mean, it's pretty hard to forget AI makes mistakes given it's mentioned after every message. But that's not what I'm talking about. I'm saying I live on New York time whilst being physically in Berlin, so my device clock is Berlin but that doesn't align with my schedule.

So like, an AT Protocol client that wanted to upgrade from a public client to a confidential client, without having the token held by a backend could use OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication (draft) by declaring the following client metadata:
A standard OAuth Client ID Metadata Document, but with a new extra property that people may not know about: token_endpoint_auth_method_supported. This allows a client to use one of multiple methods when performing client authentication, provided the authorization server supports it.

Here, "attest_jwt_client_auth_dpop" comes OAuth 2.0 Attestation-Based Client Authentication, which is the specification that would supersede the current AT Protocol "Client Assertion Backend" proposal.

Okay, quick little update: Gemini's SynthID integration now says there's insufficient signal on both the teal-only and teal+pink dress, which is probably rightfully so. The issue was never size related either as I hypothesised earlier in the thread.

Is this image Al generated? (Image with teal and pink on the dress)

Okay, so something that I didn't spot earlier: one of these images (the one that flags as synthetic) has pink on the dress, the other versions of the image don't. The one with just green on the dress doesn't flag as synthetic.

1864 and 1873 are the original and resized, 1869 is the one that flagged. So it's not wildly different but subtly different (granted, claude just generated this benchmarking too using pdq wasm)

The PDQ hashes between these images are apparently 50 and 22 (For anyone not in moderation, that means same image just downscaled or cropped slightly)
This should be the original 2000x2000 image which doesn't flag as synthThis flags as synthetic This should be a 200x200 resize of the 2000x2000 image, which I've not been able to test yet

Good gosh, Harvest is having a laugh after being bought by Bending Spoons. €116,50 for a monthly plan, that's billed monthly, not yearly. That's a 807.8% increase. There's gonna be a hell of a lot of unhappy customers getting that email. I think I've worked out how to keep my costs manageable.
My previous billWhat harvest just tried to pull:

Dear customer,

We're reaching out with an important update to Harvest's features and subscription plans. These changes impact your Enterprise Harvest account.

What's changing

⚠️ On your next renewal date, September 08, 2026, your account will be transitioned to a Harvest Enterprise plan with Unlimited usage billing.

You will be automatically billed $116,50 for your new monthly plan.
You can always downgrade to Flex usage billing, which would have an estimated price of $17,50 and would adapt to your monthly usage.
Please read this email carefully to understand how this change will impact your subscription and how to avoid any unwanted charges.

I also asked for a character from a mainstream movie and my goodness, I'm flattered but.. 😧 She's def. an inspiration, but like.. 🫣
Mmm, if you had to pick a character from a more mainstream movie, who would you pick?

Answer: Katherine Johnson from Hidden Figures. The technical work is unambiguous and load-bearing, but the fight running underneath it is about being in the room and having your name on the report - which is a fight about credit as a material thing, not vanity. Without the byline you don't get the next assignment.

Runner-up: Erin Brockovich. Less of a match on the technical side, but the same instinct for building a documented case about a harm that institutions would rather not formalize, and the same willingness to be inconvenient about it in public.

Why & from which movie?
Answer: Nausicaä.

Nausicaä? I don't recognise that name from a movie, what movie is she from?

🤔 Thinking about identifying Nausicaä's film...

Answer: Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind - Miyazaki's 1984 fllm (also a much longer manga). She's a princess of a small valley in a post-collapse world, and she spends the story flying between two societies that are busy warring with each other, trying to get them to stop long enough to notice the actual problem.

The reason she came to mind: her real work isn't the fighting. It's a secret underground lab where she's patiently studying the toxic ecosystem everyone else just wants to burn, and quietly working out that the thing being blamed is actually doing the cleanup.

Based on all of our previous chats and what you know about me, name a movie character who resembles me most. Give me the name only. Nothing else.

Answer: Nausicaä.

I'm also enjoying claude tracking and keeping a leaderboard of funniest transcription errors. I've had some genuinely great ones like "Faustmail" when talking about migration from google to @fastmail.com And this one husband != heart is
